          Navid, 
                   There are people that would kill to get corner 
weights within 1%, me included. It'll never happen on a 
stock body/chassis Corvette. I bet you drive one of those 
rocket BMW M3's. If you want to see a real ICBM try and 
stay with a BMW M5 and an instructor driver. Those things 
are awesome. 400hp in a light weight sedan!!!!

                                                          Larry

 Oooooh, I smell a challenge!  But I don't think you need to be present to
 win.  I think we can do this by lap time (autox style :)).  I don't have
 times at Button Willow, but 1:55s at Sears and 1:46s at Laguna should be a
 good start.  My car weighs about ~3200lb with me in it and puts out 216HP at
 the wheels.  Frankly, I think it's much more than HP and weight.  My car is
 within 1% of 25% weight distribution on each corner.  I think that is a big
 factor.
